Lovely house, beautiful location, but the company managing the home are completely unreasonable and simply seeking profit. The house was missing listed items when we arrived and the expectations once we left we’re completely unreasonable, adding cleaning fees for items we didn’t use, or things we already cleaned before leaving. Lacks the personal elements and thoughtfulness of other AirBnB’s, with the pedantic property mangers clearly only concerned about profits, not your experience. Need to deep clean before leaving if you wish to stay here, or just don’t touch anything.

A great place to stay for a group of women friends, with four bedrooms and two bathrooms. This is our second time there because of the excellent kitchen facilities and stunning garden. Good forest walks and nearby villages full of quirky shops kept us busy. Highly recommended.

Boyanda is a magnificent property and our family recently spent a wonderful weekend there. The upstairs living area is large and open with plenty of room for everyone. It has a beautiful fire for added ambience and has spectacular views - especially from the huge picture window. Bedrooms are downstairs and are spacious and the beds are really comfortable. There is also a large living area downstairs so lots of room to spread out if needed. The gardens are also spectacular. We had great communication from the host Emilia at all times - nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend this property.

The Gatehouse cottage is like 2 open arms saying come on in relax and let your worries float away. We arrived to nice ambient music playing the heating was on and all the rooms were warm. The continental breakfast was enough for 2, the rooms were warm cosy and inviting. All in all it is a wonderful place to reconnect and have a romantic few nights away Bring your bubble bath and have a great time

Emerald Lodge and Emerald Cottage were just perfect for our family accomodation. The spaciousness, cleanliness, comfortable beds, beautiful views and everything we could possibly need was there. Just perfect. We are already talking about how soon we could do this again!!. Valley Ranges Getaways were amazing to deal with. Other online booking agencies & property managers could well take a leaf out of their book. Overall, a lovely relaxed & professional experience. Will most definitely do this again.

We had such a wonderful, surprise mini-moon after our wedding! We arrived to relaxed music playing and lamps to set a vibe, and the cottage itself - absolutely stunning! Clean and perfect, and the autumn views through all the windows - glorious! We were there mid May, so the leaves on the property were so colourful, and the ponies were a bonus. We had charcuterie boxes and high tea in the fridge upon arrival too, an in house couples massage the next day, and even had dinner booked the night after. Such a relaxing stay, romantic stay in front of the fire, thank you.

An absolutely incredible experience. The location was beautiful. The host was so kind and welcoming, truly going above and beyond in making us feel welcome. With a great assortment of foods to enjoy. The garden around the house is simply amazing, with a range of colours and smells(and even a duck) The location itself was a short drive to everywhere we wanted to go and so it was a great base to start from. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a BnB to stay at

The perfect place to stay prior to and after our wedding; great tree top views for getting ready bridal photos. Spacious main room, and a nice fire place to keep the rooms warm. A gift basket was also provided; a very nice touch!

Amazing properties and all beautifully maintained. Would highly recommend any of these cottages or the larger houses for a getaway in the hills. Emelia and her staff do an outstanding job at maintenance and keeping all of the accommodation looking beautiful.

Great location for Olinda Village apartments but customer service is a little unorganised. Rooms smelt like someone had been smoking in there even though there are "No smoking" signs everywhere. Great bathrooms that were nice and clean and new.

This house is great if you can get in. Three important things you should know about this house are that the door lock is electric, that the area suffers frequent power outages and that the agent cannot help you get into the house during a power outage. These things spoilt our weekend at Boyanda. We have stayed at too many short-stay accommodation places to count, and this is the first time we have left a negative review. At check-in time, we had to call Valley Ranges Getaways to be able to find the key safe. Then the door would not unlock. Eventually Valley Ranges Getaways arranged other accommodation for us to be able to prepare for the wedding we were due to attend ( to which we arrived late and rather stressed!) Eventually, Valley Ranges Getaways worked out that power outage was the cause of us not being able to access Boyanda, but told us the only access option was to wait until the power was restored. The agent had advised us prior to the stay that the power was unreliable and we should be prepared for this. If you leave the house, be prepared that you may not get back in! Fortunately, it is a great house to spend a weekend in. We think Valley Ranges Getaways should have worked with the owners to allow guests safe access to the house when the power goes out. When we put this to Valley Ranges Getaways, they did not agree and neither apologised for the inconvenience nor offered any goodwill gesture. For this and other reasons I won't go into here, we won't use Valley Ranges Getaways again.
